It was gold for some of it.
There were a lot of other elements.
Dude, it's so... I do have a clip because I can't even explain to you really what this thing is.
They really, when the scientists are talking about it, they're like, where do we start?
Some of it's gold-weaven threads sewn together so tightly that it creates a structure of combined fibers to create solid metal.
Other parts of it are like nine different bizarre elements that shouldn't be together, that when heated just completely change what they are, which I think is supposed to be impossible, with certain elements at least.
But...
Yeah, the hair is maybe one of the weirdest ones of all, you know?
To put that in perspective, in 1986, manufacturing something that precise, at that scale, with that level of precision, would have been effectively impossible.
It's unheard of.
When people describe it now, they compare it to an object that looks like it's 3D printed.
but 3D printed at a level that we don't even do today.
So intricate.
Transformers, not the robots you're thinking about, but the Decepticons, the evil ones.
They're made with metal fragments.
Yes.
Yeah, it is.
Maybe the only reason that we're capable of that technology today is because of some shit that crashed in a mountain 30 years ago.
Look, Kit, I know I'm doing a terrible job at describing these elements, what they are and their composition.
That's why I'm going to leave it to the experts.
